Session Summary

School Improvement Through Research Engagement in Different Contexts

Fri, April 17, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Virtual Room

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The objective of this symposium is to bring together different insights into the relationship between school improvement and the use of research by teachers and headteachers in England, Austria and Italy. Recognition of the powerful role that research can play in developing and improving the quality of teaching raises questions about the ways in which high-quality research reaches the practice of schools and informs teachers’ professional learning. Different answers to this question are explored by all the papers within this symposium, which illustrate powerful forms of collaboration intended to mobilise research within and across different types of institution in different contexts.
